Guacamole is a delightfully spicy and refreshing dip that's perfect for parties, game nights, or any time you crave a healthy snack. Packed with flavors from creamy avocados, zesty lime and lemon juice, and a kick from chili peppers, this recipe is bound to become a favorite.
Instructions:
- Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to gently mash the avocados, leaving some chunks for a chunky texture.
- Lime and Lemon Juices: Measure out 2 tablespoons of lime juice and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Combine them in a small bowl and set aside.
- Cherry Tomatoes: Finely chop the 4 cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the mashed avocados.
- Red Onion: Peel and finely chop the red onion. Add it to the mixing bowl.
- Chili Peppers: For a spicy kick, finely chop the 2 red hot chili peppers, discarding the seeds if you prefer a milder heat. Add the chopped peppers to the bowl.
- Garlic: Peel and finely mince the 2 garlic cloves. Add the minced garlic to the bowl.
- Pour the lime and lemon juice mixture over the mashed avocados and chopped vegetables.
- Gently stir everything together until well combined, ensuring all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Taste the guacamole and adjust the lime and lemon juice, and salt as needed to achieve your preferred flavor balance. If you like it spicy, you can also add more chili peppers.
- Transfer the hunky chunky guacamole to a serving bowl.
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or as a topping for your favorite Mexican dishes.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. A ripe avocado should yield slightly when pressed gently.
- For a more mild version, remove the seeds from the chili peppers before chopping them.
- Use fresh lime and lemon juice instead of bottled juices for a brighter, fresher taste.
- To prevent the guacamole from browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- If you want more texture, roughly mash the avocados instead of making them completely smooth.
Guacamole is quick to prepare and bursting with flavor. By choosing fresh ingredients and following these tips, you can create a dip that's both healthy and irresistibly delicious. Serve it with tortilla chips, veggies, or as a topping for tacos and enjoy the zesty, spicy goodness!
